Tony Lindgren 6be1a8d50b serial: core: Fix kmemleak issue for serial core device remove
Kmemleak reports issues for serial8250 ports after the hardware specific
driver takes over on boot as noted by Tomi.

The kerneldoc for device_initialize() says we must call device_put()
after calling device_initialize(). We are calling device_put() on the
error path, but are missing it from the device remove path. This causes
release() to never get called for the devices on remove.

Let's add the missing put_device() calls for both serial ctrl and
port devices.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
